The highly anticipated PlayStation Network 3.0 is now LIVE! Be sure to update your PS3 to enjoy all the goodies 3.0 has to offer. The update went live around 11:00 PM ET on August 31st. Here’s some quick FYI’s: You’re PS3 will update it’s database along with a couple of reboots upon completion of 3.0. The glitter, oh the glitter…

For those wanting the “what’s new” break down, thanks to Daniel, I’ve listed the highlight below:

Immediately, the firmware update will drop you in the PlayStation Network icon displaying thumbnails of all the latest the PS store has to offer. For those with 1080p resolution, you will notice the icons slightly larger than normal compared to firmware 2.7. No need to panic, this is still in glorious Full HD 1080p.

So, let’s see what all the hype’s about. Kinda feels like a New PS3 Experience (NPE), hmm where did that saying come from?
